I still get the feeling he doesn't want to spend time together. In one breath he talks about having a good time when we're together and thinks he wants to work on M, but then doesn't seem to want to stick around when he comes over.
He's not there yet, he needs more time. Just pull back and leave him to his thoughts. Nothing you can do will speed the process.

At this point, since we have talked about reconciling, I don't know if I should still be keeping distance and not initiating or if I should be showing him that I do care about him.
DEFINITELY keep your distance. Do you know the squirrel analogy?
If you try to feed a squirrel by hand, you have to hold perfectly still. It will slowly come to you, but even if you don't move, it will sometimes get scared and retreat. But it will return and get a little closer each time. If you get impatient and make any move towards it, it will quickly run the other way and the entire process starts all over again from the beginning. But if you remain patient, it will come closer and closer until it will finally take the nut from you.

I don't know if it is appropriate to talk about feelings yet or wait since there has been no solid plans made on moving back.
I don't think he's ready for that yet.

I always get the feeling either he is waiting for me to say something or he is thinking of saying something. There is just that awkward moment.
Just act "as if" everything is fine, that your life is fine with or without him. Likewise, you are fine whether he kisses you or not. It's fine to kiss him if he initiates, just don't act like you're sitting there waiting for him to do it (I hope that makes sense).
